    have been using Samsung SSDs since SSDs became mainstream and have been happy with their performance. This one is no different, most people are not aware that upgrading to an SSD can be felt during daily use.

    Better than the WD SN850 for long reading/writing.

    Super fast. Just make sure your m.2 slot is PCIE 4.0 enabled to get the most benefit. The WD SN850 is faster for short bursts of write/reading but the 980 PRO is better for sustained reading/writing because it has MUCH better thermal properties. It won't thermal throttle.

    This Gen4 M.2 SSD is super fast. I just put it in my new Ryzen 5900x build and I can get loaded to Windows Startup Login Screen in about 10 seconds. It's unreal how fast this drive is. I love it. Anyone looking for a fast M.2 SSD this is the one to get.

    Great price and amazing performance! I went with the PRO over an EVO because I needed better load handling since it is in an audio production rig that will see LOTS of reads and writes over the coming years.

    I bought this to put into my ASUS Pro art studio book OLED 16 laptop to edit videos and photos . I have a 5 tb external drive but lets just say no one should edit off a regular HDD unless you don't have an option not to. This was easy to install, just dropped it in and its been working perfectly so far. I just wish I had purchased the 2 or 4 TB version instead.

    First nvme hard drive. The performance is only slightly better than an SSD but the form factor is much more convenient. Not having to run sata cables and mess with the drive bay is nice. Makes for a much cleaner build.

    Bought this SSD PCIe for a build I was putting together. The specs were just what I needed for my powerful two-system PC build. I bought four of them for my two motherboards that are in my 1000d corsair case.

    SSD upgrade for your PS5

    Now that PS5 allows SSD expantions, this works like a dream and gives me much more space to store PS5 games. The only real downside to the card is that it doesn't come with a heatsink and PS5 recommends that you put a heat sink on any upgrade SSD.
